Therefore, if I continue to profess my love for both them, and my son, what does that make me? What does that make the man who professes that he is willing to go to any lengths to try and ensure that his son has a future that doesn’t read like a dystopian novel? A future wherein, my son doesn’t look at me and say “Daddy, why didn’t you do something???”

Powerful words. Excellent piece.

How do you feel about those who agree with you on the politics, but not on the interpersonal implications. If your cousin or sibling votes for the right people but still has their parents over for dinner, where do you stand?
